You just treat scientific notation as a math problem. For example, 1.17*10^5 would be 1,17,000 (or in layman's terms, move the decimal point the number of spaces indicated by the exponent). If there's a negative exponent, that means you move the decimal to the left instead of to the right. For example, 1.17*10^-5 would be 0.0000117.
